Osmanthus trees can be pruned . There are three main periods of time for pruning osmanthus trees in a year. The first period is from March to April in early spring when it grows new buds. The second period is from October to November when the weather turns cooler and its flowers wither. The third period is the winter dormancy period , which is from January to February. Osmanthus tree pruning method1. Early spring pruning When it grows new buds in early spring, you can give it a more thorough pruning. At this time, you should first cut off the dry and old branches on the plant, and then cut off the top few centimeters of the main branch together with the new buds. This will encourage the osmanthus tree to grow more new branches, making it grow more lush and prosperous. 2. Pruning after flowering After its flowers wither, all the withered flowers need to be cut off immediately. If there are diseased branches, they should also be cut off as well. This can save more nutrients and help the osmanthus tree survive the winter. 3. Winter pruning In winter, the sweet-scented osmanthus tree grows slowly and is not easily injured by pruning, so it can be heavily pruned. At this time, all its poorly growing branches can be cut off, the overly long branches can be shortened, and the overly dense branches can be thinned out. This is good for its growth next year. Precautions for pruning osmanthus treesIt should be noted that after pruning the osmanthus tree, you should apply some disinfectant on the wound to effectively prevent bacterial infection of the wound, and then make sure it is ventilated. |
